      https://ecqi.healthit.gov/ecqm/ec/2022/cms156v10?sort_order=2022vs2023 lists "Patients 65 years and older at the end of the measurement period who had a visit during the measurement period" while https://ecqi.healthit.gov/sites/default/files/ecqm/measures/CMS156v11.html lists
      AgeInYearsAt(date from
      end of "Measurement Period"
      )>= 67

      Last year, https://ecqi.healthit.gov/sites/default/files/ecqm/measures/CMS156v10.html this was 65 years being calculated from the measurement period start date.

      Which value should we go with for the calculations and is it from the start date or end date of the measurement period?
